User Reviews
Eugene, 30 years old. Very convenient, informative and beautiful launcher. I recommend it to everyone, even if you haven’t used Windows Phone. I have already changed several devices during the use of Square Home 3, but I always find this particular application. Thanks developers!
Igor, 38 years old. For a long time I was looking for a launcher similar to my favorite WINDOWS MOBILE 10, like on my old Lumia, and this program even surpassed the original for me. Everything is very convenient, clear and understandable. I also installed it on TV – the only application I’ve tried that works fine and does not “crook”.
Ekaterina, 26 years old. This launcher is very good even in the free version. But it still has a small drawback (for me personally) – when you press “home” on the cube tile, it turns to the “default” side, which cannot be changed (at least in the simple version).
